Psycholinguistics and SLA

I feel like I can now rename "the class straight from hell" and refer to it henceworth by its proper title "Psycholinguistics and SLA".
The reason: not one word of Korean was spoken today :) everything was in English and no jokes in Korean against foreigners. I'm quite happy with this class now, I hope it goes on like this :)
The teacher brought the books for us today and gave them to us as a present, which is a really nice gesture I think.
We are at the moment reading the following two books:

• Psycholinguistics by Thomas Scovel (1998)
• Psycholinguistics - Language, Mind and World by Steinberg, Nagata and Aline (2nd edition, 2001)

The bad thing of today: we are supposed to finish the first book (the Scovel one) by next week...I mean, the book is not really thick (actually rather thin) but wow, quite a heavy workload I think! Especially when considering that we also have to read one more additional journal article and have a web-related assignment as well (comparing two websites which offer ESL material).

The good thing of today: I found out that I can get free coffee and tea in the department office any time I'd like to have some! Yeeeeeeeeeah, finally a source for coffee so I can survive the 3-hour marathon classes (you can even choose between instant and REAL coffee)!
